http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9qRdT1rFi0 ^I came across this looking at the results of the Flooding that is going on....Just curious, cause there are a lot of people buying into this stuff and literally quiting their jobs, moving, stopped going to college etc. Wouldn't this be illegal to spread this type of fear that is based of no credible sources?

First of all. For those of us too lazy, what is that vid about?

Second. Illegal? Now that's a slipperly slope. You sound like that American regulation 'Czar', Cass Sunstein or whatever his name is.

Third.People can believe whatever stupid Youtube thing they want. That's their own damn problem. Why should I care?

As Dara O Briain Said 'Get in the sack' :) If you haven't heard of Dara O Briain then don't be surprised if this sounds weird.

We Live in a world where people have free will, its there choice if they want to believe this like I have a choice to believe that God exists. But frankly, Its just complete rubbish 'Meet up with your survival groups at safe locations' and then people are commenting 'Man, there are a lot of foolish, self absorbed, brain dead and numb idiots running around the world. The great cleansing will catch them off guard though. I doubt they will be mocking and sneering for much longer.'

This is fear mongering on an epic scale, seriously, its like people are preparing for Nuclear War. Someone took Fallout a little too seriously xD

People can make up their own minds. Why does this need to be illegal when, as you said, there are no credible sources for the information he's giving?

Because it scares people who dont know better. Idiots watch this video, then we have massive amounts of idiots scared of the end of the world.

Illegal? No, nor should it be. Morally questionable and a dick move? Certainly.

if people are dumb enough to panic because a random somebody scared them in a youtube video they deserve it.

actually i just watched the video and laughed most of it, people dont know the first thing about astronomy and they run to make up whatever they want to believe

What else is new? If people are going to get scared watching a YouTube video, I'd say this guy spewing nonsense is the least of the their worries.

Here is one of his followers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vP8LnU4vUIo Watch it, I actually laughed out loud when I watched it. It is good entertainment. You can skip to 4:46, he starts going off into lala land. He mentions star destroyers.

Of course not. Fear mongering has been around since the begining of humanity. How do you think the world advanced? And how can you explain the fact that no one goes to the forbidden forest after the sun has set?

His video is hilarious that comet or whatever has an orbit that comes close to the sun but then moves far off.
